As this online Market unites urban chemical-free growers and local health-conscious consumers within the St. Petersburg Community, this blog builds more community commitment to improve our health as we share experiences with the chemical-free produce and products we obtain from the Market. All are welcome to post relevant feedback on experiences related to preparing this fresh produce for your table. Through sharing we teach one another new options for a healthier diet.

I was the lucky recipient of the giant diakon radish. I pickled 1/4 of it in vinegar and herbs. The balance I sauteed in olive oil with garlic, onion and red bell pepper. When nicely browned I added vegetable broth and simmered it until very tender. It is sweet and tasty. The pickled radish is doing its thing in the frig and will be tasted later.
